Whether the power's out and you need a light source or your romantic evening won't be complete without the scent of butter, this DIY candle from Instructables user The King of Random will give you both in minutes.

The project looks pretty easy, as you can see in the video above. Just cut a stick of butter in half, quarter a square of toilet paper, twist a quarter of the paper towel to make a wick, and use a toothpick to make room for the wick inside the butter. When you're done, you have a candle that'll actually burn for hours. Butter may not seem like a likely source for light, but it'll do the trick.
